Beth Weinhardt has one of the best jobs in Columbus. She gets to manage the Westerville Local History Center located inside of the Westerville Public Library. There, she curates the vast archive of information regarding the Anti-Saloon League, and the prohibition movement that had strong roots in the Rural Westerville Community of the early 20th century.

Robert and Craig braved the cold to travel to Westerville to talk with her about how she ended up where she did. This is a fascinating show full of the history of prohibition.

Holly makes a mean cookie, and wanted to share them with the world. We talked with her, at her store in Gahanna about how the shop came to be, some of the challenges she’s had, and with a special announcement about a new location opening soon! Also, Robert and Craig take objection to the term ‘Whoopee Pie’

Our last show of the year! We crashed Marty Parker’s staff appreciation party to talk with him about axe throwing, escape rooms, color runs, bubble runs, tomato fights, and all the other events he runs through his various companies. We are, in fact, in the middle of an axe throwing party, so the audio on this one is a little rough.

We will be taking the next two weeks off for the holidays, so we’ll see you all again in 2018.

This week we got out of the shed and downtown to visit with Oron Benary at Drake Brother’s Meadery. We got to sample some really good mead, talk about the pitfalls of running a meadery, and Craig almost had his car towed.

Eddie Miller is the taproom manager at Kindred Brewing, and our neighbor in Gahanna. He came over to the shed to talk about why Kindred is different than the rest of the Columbus Craft scene, and where they are heading next.

A decade ago, Nick went out to breakfast, and wrote down his thoughts. 10 years later, he’s been named Columbus top blogger by 614 magazine numerous times, and is our cities go to expert on the most important meal of the day.
